Privacy Policy

Last updated: September 2026 — DRAFT — pending legal review. Contact: isaiah.greenwood01@gmail.com

This Privacy Policy explains what groupsmaxxing ("the App") collects and how it is used.

1. Information We Collect

• Account info — a Firebase user ID and Sign in with Apple identity used to authenticate you.
• Profile info you provide — display name, optional avatar photo, gamer tags, favorite games, Discord invite, and social links.
• Content you post — looking-for-group listings and reports you submit about other users or posts.
• Device integrity data — Firebase App Check (App Attest) attests that requests come from a genuine install of the App.

2. How We Use It

• To authenticate you and operate your account.
• To show your profile and posts to other signed-in users.
• To moderate the service (reports, blocking).

We do not sell your data, use it for advertising, or track you across other apps and websites.

3. Who Can See It

Your profile (name, avatar, gamer tags, links) and your posts are visible to other signed-in users. Users you block will no longer have their posts shown to you.

4. Storage & Retention

Data is stored in Google Cloud Firestore (US region). Posts expire and are deleted automatically after their expiry. Deleting your account from the Profile tab removes your profile, posts, and reports.

5. Third-Party Services

• Firebase (Google) — authentication, database, app integrity. See Firebase's privacy terms.
• Apple — Sign in with Apple and App Attest.

6. Your Choices

• Edit or remove profile details anytime in the app.
• Delete your account (and all associated data) from Profile → Delete Account.

7. Children

The App is not directed at children under 13. We do not knowingly collect data from children under 13.

8. Changes

We may update this policy; the "last updated" date will change and material changes will be noted in the app.
